[Sometime a little before dawn, Sephiroth finally comes back from his Mallynapping looking... altogether quite normal.

Anyone who's passing by on an early morning jaunt or somesuch near the fountain can find one half-naked (why do they keep catching him without all his clothes on?) silver-haired fellow lying cuddled up in a fetal position on the

[So Sephiroth IS here...and he's asleep...outside...

PERFECT!!

Yuffie will just poke him with a stick she found nearby~]

[silvergeneral]

[And Sephiroth does not think much of Yuffie's intelligence if the first thing she can think of when faced with the bane of her world's existence is to poke him with a stick.

And yet wake he does, sitting up straight and glaring balefully at--

--oh yes, he does know this one. When did she ever get back?]

I see you simply couldn't stay away, little brat.

[roseof_wutai]

[Oi, she knows better than to kick him!

She just smiles evilly when he finally wakes up.]

And you can't stay dead!

[silvergeneral]

[True say, she does have one up on Kadaj with that one.]

Any reason I should want to?

[roseof_wutai]

[Yuffie is now smarter than Kadaj~]

To give people a break of course!

[silvergeneral]

[he smirks, leaning back against the fountain as if the cold doesn't really bother him (it doesn't)]

You haven't been given long enough?

[roseof_wutai]

[Well, it's not like she's 'worried' about him freezing to death anyway..]

A year isn't even close to long enough!

[silvergeneral]

[Oh no, that would be too compassionate for the little ninja]

Tell me that again when you lie dead in the Lifestream for a year, little girl.

[roseof_wutai]

[And she can't have people thinking that she actually cares, now can we?]

Well, that's your own fault!

[silvergeneral]

[It would do such things to her perfect, unsullied reputation.]

. . .

Which part?

[roseof_wutai]

[Exactly!]

That you're dead!

[silvergeneral]

[he raises an eyebrow]

I do believe there were more direct reasons for my death. Large swords. Giant shuriken. Impossible guns.

[roseof_wutai]

But if you didn't try to kill us, we wouldn't have tried to kill you!

[silvergeneral]

Of course. I have every reason to believe that you would have been perfectly content living in a Shinra-run Wutai, enslaved forever to be materia-harvesters, just waiting for all the Lifestream on the Planet to be sucked into Midgar.

[roseof_wutai]

You're not helping your case you know!

You were in Shinra! That just makes one more reason to kill ya.

[silvergeneral]

And I think you're confusing yourself. Your illustrious leader was just as much a part of Shinra as I was then.

If I hadn't revolted, the world would be exactly as it were. Killing me, even then, wouldn't have helped your cause any.
